NBC said:Some liberal critics have said that Kagan's views on executive power and the treatment of terrorist detainees are too conservative.
US presidents do not run this country, sorry I hate it tooIf obama picked her, its probably not good.
I was wondering that too. I think that modern presidents have had too much power, so perhaps Kagan believes in a more limited executive? Or, perhaps MSNBC was thinking of a "neocon" when they typed "conservative," so she could believe that the executive has broad powers.I thought this article had an interesting quote.

So... what makes her views on executive power "conservative"?

David McIntosh, co-founder of the Federalist Society and former congressman from Indiana: "I'm deeply disappointed that President Obama has chosen to nominate an individual who has demonstrated a lack of adherence to the limits of the Constitution and a desire to utilize the court system to enact her beliefs of social engineering. Solicitor General Kagan has been nominated with no judicial experience, a mere two years of private law practice, and only a year as Solicitor General of the United States. She is one of the most inexperienced nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court in recent memory."
He adds: "Ms. Kagan's public comments should be highly disturbing to all Americans as they show what kind of a Justice she will be. She has been a vocal opponent of military recruiters on the Harvard Law School campus, placing political correctness above national security in a time of war. Ms. Kagan abandoned the will of the American people and the Congress by challenging the Defense of Marriage Act, proving she will merely rule based on her personal political preferences and not the law. President Obama has, once again, nominated an individual who places a higher premium on political progressivism than adherence to the set of laws that have made this country strong and free. For someone tragically inexperienced and activist, Ms. Kagan represents President Obama's ideal of transforming the Supreme Court into a vehicle for social reform and judicial affirmative action.

Since she has little to no experience as a lawyer and she's never been a judge it's difficult to give her a judicial review.1/3 of the comments in this thread are concerning her looks. There is surely a better standard for judicial review.
I've listened to NPR and other radio stations and watched TV, and nothing has been mentioned about her stand on abortion or the 2A. I can't find anything that she's published, but I will be able for conduct a better search when I get to work.

Since we're not the ones that are going to vote on her appointment we may as well have some fun.
As my wife said if she was a hot babe we would be talking about that.
